Menzoberranzan

Menzoberranzan (1994) is the title of a video game created by SSI and DreamForge Intertainment and uses the same game engine as SSI’s previous game Ravenloft: Strahd’s Possession (1994). It is set in the Advanced Dungeons & Dragons campaign setting Forgotten Realms.

Menzoberranzan, an underground city populated by the Drow, had been introduced in the game materials two years earlier in December 1992 in a three-book box set called Menzoberranzan: The Famed City of the Drow by Ed Greenwood, R. A. Salvatore, and Douglas Niles. The game also features Drizzt Do’Urden as one of the main characters.

It has elements of Ultima Underworld (3d world and real-time action) and its game concept is somewhat similar to Westwood’s Eye of the Beholder series.[citation needed] The player initially creates two player characters (PCs) and can acquire non-player character (NPC) allies later in the game.
